Rock Auto has three listings for oil pan gasket sets, Fel-Pro, Mahle, and currently out of stock Victor Reinz. Which would be preferred manufacturer? |

Probably doesn't matter for an oil pan gasket. Cost difference? (shipping included) What else do you need? How can you get them to ship from one location? |

Victor Reinz was bought by Mahle and was folded under that brand years ago...Both Mahle and Felpro gaskets are about par with each other for the timing cover and oil pan gasket pieces FYI... |

Yep. Careful installation and use of sealer is the key. Lou |

Get the fel pro. For that pesky corner leak use some gasket shellac in addition to the above mentioned info as well as checking the articles section that Doc has a write up on sealing. http://www.slantsix.org/articles/gasket ... n-seal.htm Greg |
